Suggested Use: After grinding the coffee beans, add one slightly rounded tablespoon
per
8 ounces of water. This should yield a hearty and rich cup. However, your own personal
taste should determine the amount of coffee you use.

Good coffee!This has become my favorite coffee. Bought 2 bags recently at regular price of $11.98(something like that). Liked it so well, bought 4 bags at 30% off Swanson products sale last week(great price for a one pound bag)
Great flavor and aroma. I buy decaf and regular as I always mix it 50/50.

Me Likee!I've only been a coffee drinker since Dec. 2014 and have tried 5-6 different whole bean coffees to date. I brew about 20 ounces every morning and use about a tablespoon of grassfed butter and 1 teaspoon of MCT oil. This coffee has a smooth non bitter taste and I plan on continuing to purchase it. Sorry I can't comment on how it would be if consumed in a more customary manner.

Better then expectedPriced relative to other top quality organic coffees I've used for years and decided to take a risk buying here online. Very impressed with smooth flavor and freshness. Have bought several times and will buy again. Not as convenient as buying at a local store, but look forward to Swanson's quick delivery.

Deep Full Bodied CoffeeOrganic coffee is the only coffee we drink.
This French Roast Dark blend has an excellent full bodied flavor.
Sometimes we add the Swanson Organic Regular blend beans and grind the two together for a third variety.
Thank you Swanson's for offering us a healthier alternative to the prevalent chemical-laden coffee beans offered in supermarkets and grocery stores.

Superior organic coffee!!This is my favorite blend.I hope they continue to source their beans from the same place because once you open the bag you can see the quality of the beans and smell the intoxicating aroma;thereby, you know you are fixing to have "THE BEST" cup of coffee...organic coconut milk,a little organic sugar and even a teaspoon of coconut oil top it off....When it is on sale I stock up for the value is excellent!

Incredible CoffeeI have always wanted to try organic coffee, but the cost always was prohibitive for me. I love Swanson's products, so when I saw that they had coffee at such an excellent price, I had to try it. I ordered this organic French Roast as well as the House Blend medium roast beans. I grind then mix them 1/2 and 1/2 for the most delicious cup of coffee I've EVER had. I can hardily recommend both of these coffees to anyone that loves a wonderful cup of coffee.

Great CoffeeI love this coffee and the price is the best value I have found. My family goes through 2 pots every morning, so price is important to me, but I also am picky about taste and quality, I want my beans fresh. This coffee meets both price and quality, am very happy to have discovered this coffee and will continue to buy. Highly recommend!!!!

Worst coffee everI know this coffee was on sale and that is why I bought it hoping it was passable. It is the worst coffee I have ever tasted, if there is even a taste. My sister who has no tastes buds at all poured it down the drain and she will drink any coffee.
Having run an Italian restaurant I know what good coffee should taste like, this is not it. I will stick to Jim's Organic.

My Husband Loves This Coffee!I keep having to order this coffee over and over again for my husband as it's his favorite. The beans are best - he grinds them every morning which insures a really fresh cup of coffee. I make sure he drinks organic, as it's much healthier than non-organic - and wives, we have to take care of our husbands!

Perfect Cup of CoffeeI consider myself to be a "coffee connoisseur" and I am very impressed and pleased with this French Roast coffee. It boasts a clean, fresh taste and is not bitter. The flavor is just what I expect from a higher priced coffee. It doesn't lose it's taste after sitting for awhile. And, you don't need alot to make a great cup, so it's very economical as well. I love that it came vacuum sealed. This is my coffee from now on.

Great CoffeeThis is our favorite coffee. It has a rich bold flavor but not the "bite" that usually accompanies a very strong coffee. We think it is a great value.

Smooth and deliciousI have worked at a few coffee shops, and been a bit spoiled by good coffee. I have found that I enjoy organic coffees more consistently than other organic vs. non-organic foods. This coffee is smooth, with very little acidity, and has a wonderful deep, slightly sweet flavor. You don't have to add as much coffee for the flavor either... normally I put in two tablespoons per cup, this one suffices with one.
This will not be your ultimate gourmet coffee for special occasions, but it is fabulous for daily drinking. I would definitely recommend trying it. The price is wonderful - you get twice as much coffee for what you normally pay, as it is a full pound. Bravo, Swanson.

Primo Coffee at a Bargain PriceSwanson's Organic French Roast/Whole Bean is as good as found anywhere. The price is astoundingly affordable for a gourmet roast that is smooooooooth and flavorful. (The package is a full pound, not 8, 10, or 12oz.)
Not only would I recommend this product, I have purchased it for friend-gifts; that fact alone would attest to the quality. Thank you Swanson for providing another great product.
